Brussels Travel Guide: 6,498 reviews and 10,871 photos
I went to Brussels to meet a VT member for the first time. The honours went to kiwi. She was visiting the city for 2 days on invitation of René Cardoen after her stay in France.
From Left to Right: My son René, me, kiwi, René Cardoen, my wife Swanèt and René's wife Felicienne.
In the back the Marsupilami (famous Belgian cartoon character) who welcomes every visitor to the Atomium.
René is a splendid host. After visiting the Atomium we decided to take a look at the Japanese Tower.
Here we are: The three VT-members in front of René's house.
A lovely picture of Pam.
Showing Pam all those deleted Discussions (Forums under the new VT) she missed while being in France.

Hello, Pieter Jan ! Thanks for your page!
Thank you for you postcard from Brussels P J Nice group you had and oue Schatje looked Schattig as usual ,but she has that naughty look in her eyes eh Groetjes aan Swanet
Fun pics PJ. Good to see familiar smiling faces.
In Brussels next weekend, good tips thankyou - the military museum sounds interesting
I see you have signed up for EuroMeet 2008 in Karlsruhe, so I look forward to meeting you there.
Op zoek naar Ieper kwam ik hier. Heeft onrechtstreeks ook wel iets met de oorlog. Een wondermooi zicht over Brussel heb je vanop het dak van dit museum. Groetjes
Loved the travelogues. Looks like grand fun. Thanks for your fine insights about Brussels.
